PACE’s Pride in the Park Family Picnic this Saturday (28 April 2018) with live music from the Hollow Decks, food trucks, a bounce house, vendors and more!!!

Shreveport LA (24 April 2018) — Last year PACE moved its annual pride picnic to April to avoid the summer heat and it was such a great success that we are making the move permanent!! Everyone is invited to join us as we proudly celebrate the lives of Northwest Louisiana’s LGBTQ community at our annual family-friendly “Pride in the Park” picnic at Betty Virginia Park in Shreveport LA on Saturday (28 April 2018) from 11:00 AM until 4:00 PM, with a free yoga class preceding the picnic at 10:00 AM.

The fifth annual PACE Pride in the Park will have food trucks on hand, various community booths to visit, vendors, and much more! There will be fun for the whole family with a story time booth, a bounce house, and a face painting vendor on site. The Ice Queen from Never Ending Stories, LLC, will be walking around throughout the park passing out coloring sheets, taking pictures, and making new friends.

There will be LIVE music from a Shreveport favorite, The Hollow Decks! The Hollow Decks play all the nostalgic hits from the ‘90s, from Alternative, Grunge, Pop, R&B, and everything in between. The Hollow Decks – All ‘90s All the Time!

Come early at 10 am for FREE yoga with James Osborne from Breathe Yoga. Make sure to bring your yoga mat and comfy clothes!
